My new favorite shoe! I have one questionable ankle and I normally use stability shoes, I won't say the brand but let's say the K 30's. They always felt clunky and heavy but I thought that was the best shoe for me. After seeing a random ad for these I thought why not? I am beyond impressed, they do not feel heavy at all, they have a fantastic roll to them when running, they make me feel like an actual runner. The other shoes I've been using for at least a year buying the same ones over and over and with these I could a faster pace with less effort. I would definitely buy more pairs, I would like some more fun colors like a hot pink or bright orange or yellow. Lots of boring colors at the moment but I'm hoping new ones come. They are 100% true to size, I ordered a 7 and a 7.5 and I am a 7.5 in every other brand and it was the same for brooks. I have extra room side to side for my toes compared to a more tapered shoe I was used to. It made running fun again, seriously I would say these are the best shoes I've purchased for running. Before an 11 minute pace felt difficult and draining, now it's like the shoe is propelling me with every stride. I'm not fast but these make fast possible. I saw someone write they were heavy, if you were using shoes like I was these are definitely not heavy at all.

I purchased these shoes for my first marathon. As soon as I put them on they felt great. While I was running, they provided so much comfort. I did size up as I always do with running shoes. I love the color, but would love more options < 3.

These shoes are THE BEST. They're so comfortable and feel like you're walking on clouds. My feet don't hurt at the end of a 12 hour shift anymore. I wish there were more color options though. The tan color is fine but I wish I could've gotten a cuter color.

I was recommended these by my mentor as a daily trainer to prepare me for my half marathon and OMG I absolutely love these. I was previously running in the Ghost but these are next level. It feels like im walking on clouds. They are lightweight, breathable and durable. I tried on over a dozen of shoes looking for something similar to have as an alternate and theres NOTHING like these on the market. I wear these for ALL my runs. I highly recommend. (For context I suffer from low arches w/ overpronation so I wear high arch support orthotics with these since these are a neutral shoe and they are game changer! I sized up a half size and they are perfect)

I love them. I'd like them in black with a white sole/base. The black/black is just too much black. They make in men's....why not offer this to women as well?

I have tried several shoes and another major brand for concrete floors and these are my favorite. My feet felt great and even after a month they still didn't hurt.

These are the absolute best shoes ever. I pretty much wear them everyday. I actually caught a nail in these shoes while I was running and had no idea. The height protected my foot. I was shocked when I pulled it out. If you want the softest shoes ever, get them! I will definitely buy them again!

I wore my Glycerin Max all day at work. First pair of shoes that my feet didn't hurt. Definitely a 5 star.

Couldn't be happier with these. I broke my ankle badly last spring and was concerned I would feel too tippy in these but the heal is stable. I also just love the way these shoes look!

Buy them. I bought 2 pairs of On, my plantar fasciitis was still bothering me, tried new balance fresh foam 1080 same thing, bought the hoka bondi 9 and they were little better but still bothering me. But this shoes are the best and most comfortable things ever. I can run and work out without any pain. I just LOVEEEEEE them

When I first saw the Brooks Glycerin Max I knew this shoe was going to be everything. It was love at first sight. When I tried them on it was like heaven to me. The Glycerin Max is supportive, cushioning, roomy and very comfortable. It's like walking on a fluffy cloud. I'm not a runner but I'm on my feet over twelve hours a day. I love these shoes. I've already purchased a second pair.

I really love all of Brooks Glycerin line of shoes! But the Glycerin Max is on a whole new level of love! Quite literally the best shoes that I have worn in a very long time! Very lightweight and feels like you are walking on clouds. My only wish is that they made a solid all black in women's that I could wear to work, because I would definitely buy those too!

The Brooks Glycerin Max feels awesome, and I was excited to run in them. However, they ran a bit smaller than I anticipated, so I needed to return them.

These shoes are *chef's kiss*. The comfort and stability is supreme. They are incredibly durable and easy to break in for distance running. I love the look of these as well, they're fun and not like the traditional boring looking running shoes. I was worried before receiving my shoes that they may be too bulky based on reading some of the other reviews. However, I find them incredibly light-weight given the cushioning and construction of the shoe.

I love the cushion! Very pleased with my purchase and the quality of these shoes! I purchased the 21's last summer and they felt as little small so I sized up. They are slightly too big in the toe box. But I can't really complain because of the level of comfort compared to all my other running shoes!
